NCT05326360

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of additional ramosetron injection for controlling late postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after breast surgery in high risk PONV patients. The investigators compared PONV amomng 3 groups- group C: no additional ramosteron, group B: two additional ramosteron doses at 12 hour interval, group M: two additional ramosetron doses mix to the intraveonus patient controlled analgesia.

Study Arms (3)

group C

NO INTERVENTION

receive ramosetron i.v. 0.3mg at the end of surgery without additional ramosetron

group B

EXPERIMENTAL

receive ramosetron i.v. 0.3mg at the end of surgery with two additional doses of ramosetron at 12- and 24- hour postoperative time points

Drug: Ramosetron Hydrochloride

group M

EXPERIMENTAL

receive ramosetron i.v. 0.3mg at the end of surgery followed ramosetron 0.6 mg mix with the patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) regimen

Drug: Ramosetron Hydrochloride

Interventions

we injected two additional remosetron doses in different way in experimental groups. In group B, patients received additional ramosetron at 12 hour interval, in group M, patients received additional ramosetron in mixed with the patient controlled analgesia regimen.
